Damn I wish I went to Vegas back then

I loved desert inn it was such a peaceful place outside in the back. Never got to stay there
Only Desert Inn and Frontier. Nice find
Stayed at Silverbird as a kid. Visited Frontier, Sahara, Dunes, DI as an adult. Frontier used to give out tokens for every blackjack you got. Collect enough and get a room. Thought that was neat. Have a pic of my friend in front of Oasis shaking one of Bobby Berosinis orangutan s . Lol.
Never been there but those are cool.
I collect old vegas ashtrays. They used to have the logos on them. I even have one from Binion's Horseshoe that has the 1973 calendar on it. Was so excited to find it because thats the year I was born!
Nice collection. I'm pretty sure I've played at all those casinos. :)

Oh wow, those are so cool! I also have an old Tropicana and Sahara I think. We used to go to junky antique stores and find them all the time! Pretty great collection you got going on there!
Nice collection. I stayed at the Landmark too my first trip to Vegas. Owned by Howard. Also collected a bunch of matchbooks and still have them in a big vase. The ashtrays,not so much. Fun stuff to look at! Sad day when the casinos all went to generic plain ashtrays but I'm sure they couldn't keep them in stock due to our collecting habits:)
I also collect Casino collectibles.
Here are a few of my ashtrays I have several boxes of them as well. My main casino items I like are paper items such as napkins , menus and other older Nevada paper Items.
Look up The Museum of Gaming History on Facebook. It is a great site that has all sorts of collectibles as well as history of Gambling.
